The greatest benefit of flipped learning is the restructuring of class time, which is more of a pedagogical solution than a technological solution.

Flipped classroom 2.0 Learning Published on May 24th, 2014 | by Mark Anderson I’ve been a big fan and supporter of flipped learning for a long time. For those of you who don’t know, flipped learning is the attempt to take much of the instructional element out of the classroom in to the home via homework so that support of more difficult concepts and reinforcement can take place in the classroom. Jon Tait ran a small action research trial in his school which you can read about here – you can find it reblogged and written about in a number of places elsewhere too. For me, I like to include accountability and tracking with things that I do. With that in mind, when Michael Ha recently showed me in our AppSmashLive a tool he found called EduCanon I have to admit, I got somewhat excited. EduCanon allows you to link to a YouTube video and then intersperse a variety of questions at bespoke points throughout the video. The interface is really very simple to use. This in my mind would work like this. About the Author

art ed with emily valenza negativity and perception parents (and teachers!!!) STOP putting yourself down in front of your children/students and criticizing yourselves. children are little sponges that completely absorb that negativity and apply it to themselves without even considering that it might not be true. i had to counsel a second grader who was crying today because she said that she’d never be “good at art” because her mom told her that nobody in her family is “good at art.” talent isn’t hereditary. it takes PRACTICE and TIME and EFFORT. tell your children what you feel proud about instead of tearing yourself down in front of them. it does such incredible damage and makes me really sad.

Zaption - Interact & Learn with Video Lessons What is Blended Learning? A quote from the former US Secretary of Education The goal of blended courses is to join the best features of in-class teaching with the best features of online learning to promote active independent learning. Blended courses are courses in which a significant portion of the learning activities have been moved online, and time traditionally spent in the face-to face (FTF) classroom is reduced but not eliminated. Using computer-based technologies, instructors use the blended model to redesign some lecture or lab content into new online learning activities, such as case studies, tutorials, self-testing exercises, simulations, and online collaborations. There is no one model for blended learning. Blended Learning in Plain English Blended Learning by Curtis Bonk In "Blended Learning - General," Dr. Related Literature Du, C. (2011, September). Blended course improves the student final examination/course performance. Melton, B., Graf, H., & Chopak-Foss, J. (2009, January). Resources

3 Ways to Take Your Students Deeper With Flipped Learning Editor's Note: This post was co-authored by Aaron Sams, Managing Director of FlippedClass.com and founding member of the Flipped Learning Network. Flipped learning is more than just an efficient way to teach. It is also an opportunity to take students to deeper levels of comprehension and engagement. One of the most important benefits of flipped learning is that it takes the teacher away from the front of the room. No longer is class focused on information dissemination, but instead, time can be spent helping students with difficult concepts and extending the learning to deeper levels. Perhaps the greatest benefit of flipped learning is that it gives teachers more time to interact with students one-to-one and in small groups. Help With the "Hard Stuff" An integral part of the learning process is when we are stretched outside of our comfort zone -- without being stretched too far that we are incapable of succeeding. Correcting Misconceptions Students sometimes learn things incorrectly.

I've haven't seen teachers use their document cameras attached to their computers. I like the idea of being able to record a lesson you're teaching. Not only could you review it, but you could let kids who were absent see the lesson they missed. by jcdrozdowski Jan 13
